NovelEnglishChapter 1476 "Ugh, she can be such a queen, chill out, it's not like it's the end of the world! And hey, at least you're rocking sserious hardware there-eight inches, no less!" That's practically Hollywood movie star territory! The words just tumbled out of Felicity's mouth before she even realized what she was saying.
"Ah... Sorry... I didn't mean to... It was an accidental glance, I swear!" "I mean, it was just a quick look, I swear on my life!" To make her point, she almost lifted her fingers to take an oath! Miles couldn't help but be exasperated with her, wanting to steer clear of this awkward topic. "What do you feel like eating?" Having been in the hospital for the better part of the day, he figured she must be hungry.
At the mention of food, Felicity quickly waved her hands, "No, no, I should really get back to Trust-E and keep Calvin company! He just got into Eldorria City today, I can't just leave him alone in the hotel." That would be so rude! But to Miles, her words translated into another cozy evening alone with Calvin.

"No, that would be awkward. Calvin doesn't know you well, it would make him uncomfortable." "Is his comfort really that important to you?" Miles' dark eyes bore into her, his irritation clear, "It's either we all dine together, or just you and me. There's no third option." Truth be told, Felicity wanted to challenge his authority, but she held her tongue.
He was six years her senior and had often been entrusted with her care by her parents when she was little. It was safe to say, Miles had watched her grow up, playing the roles of both a brother and a mentor.
Eventually, the three of them ended up in a private booth at a local diner in Eldorria City.
The only consolation for Felicity was that Calvin was very laid-back and didn't mind the awkwardness. He didn't seem to feel out of place at all.
As soon as they entered the booth, Calvin quickly pulled out a chair for her, his movements as smooth as if it was a daily ritual.
Miles, observing this, frowned deeply, his lips pressed tightly together in silence.
"I'll have the beef rolls, the layered tripe, and shrimp dumplings, and let's make the broth extra spicy!" Before the waiter could jot it down, Calvin interjected, "No, no, darling, don't listen to her! Keep it mild, please." "Sure thing, coming right up." Once the waiter left, Felicity shot Calvin a glare, "Why'd you change my order?" "Your stomach's been acting up, remember? You need to ease up on the spicy food. Forgot about waking up in the middle of the night in agony?" Their back-and-forth made Miles feel like a third wheel, especially with the level of intimacy their conversation hinted at-a closeness he and Felicity seemed to lack.

Suddenly, Felicity's phone rang.
A video call request on WhatsApp! Raising an eyebrow, she answered, "Hey, Mom."
"Felicity, where did you take your friend out?" Karen's i's face filled the screen, too close to the camera, showing only half her faces belongs to en.kikistori tent
"Just out to this diner." Felicity replied, swiveling the camera to m include Calvin. He instantly flashed a charming smile and waved politely, "Hi there!" "Aw, what a handsboy! Calvin, is it? You should bring him over sometime="
Before Karen could finish, Miles' face suddenly appeared on the screen too! e "Aunt Karen." "Langston?! What are you doing there..." "I've been with Felicity all day."
